YES.... In Northeastern Arizona ! It happened during our Christmas Vacation Week last month ... while we were checking out the wineries in the Page Springs / Cottonwood area! The last time we had been in the area we hadn't seen any wineries, matter of fact we didn't know there were any there! Well this time, since we were snowed out of re-entering Flagstaff, we planned a few more Southern trips out of Sedona. We went to another winery in Page Springs first, and the host/server there recommended we see Javelina Leap Winery next. We had hardly starting talking to others standing at the wine bar, when Sally Murphy, the hostess/server there that day told us right off which wines Tina and I would like best. Darn if she wasn't right on! I mentioned that were from out of town, and had seen several sights already in the area. I don't always mention right off what we do when we are not in a convention setting. I mentioned I was interested in art, and Sally stated what art I was most interested in. Right again! Well, I told her, giving her my card, taking her photo, etc. that she was a true psychic! Tina got in the swing of things too and stated that Sally should be promoting herself as a wine & art psychic on the web! Turned out that Sally is also an artist, with the majority of her artwork in an art gallery in Jerome, which we had driven by earlier, but hadn't stopped because of the weather. Sally isn't a comic book artist, or an artist for book covers, which are whom we usually blog about here... but you might want to take a look anyways at her web site: (Plus she is on FaceBook: Sally Murphy) For those that think that all Tina and I do are to go to comic cons and pop culture conventions... well, there are times that Tina and I do like to go wine tasting and view art galleries too, LOL! Funny thing is, we can't get away from comic art even at art galleries any more... Saw several Buck Jones, Alex Ross, and others' prints at a fine art gallery in Sedona! BTW, we also met Carol from Carmel Valley CA, who works in Carlsbad CA where we live, while tasting at this winery. Talk about small worlds, she was also staying at the same resort Tina and I were at, as Carol stopped us later in the week to say hi there also! Tina and I are open to meeting new friends even we are on vacation!
